Title: Epitaph
Post by: Shaztastic on 16 Feb 2009, 06:51
Inspired by todays comic in which hanners says her epitaph will probably be "she finally snapped, like we always knew she would"

what do you think your epitaph is going to be and what would you wish it would be?

mine is probably going to be something like "yeah, she was nice and boring"

i'd rather it was "she was one bad ass bitch, who kept everyone guessing till the end" or something similar

anyways gooooo!

"Huh, we thought he had died years ago" is probably what it'll be like. My ideal one would be something like "He finally found out the answer to the greatest of mysteries".

Everybody knows if you're going to use a Slaughterhouse Five epitaph, it'd be "So it goes."  Just sayin'.

"If life seems jolly rotten,
there's something you've forgotten,
and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you're feeling in the dumps,
don't be silly, chumps!
Just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thing! And

Always look on the Bright Side of Life."

I'd like my grave to be an upside down crucifix with the words  'lived by the sword, died by the sword' engraved upon it.

It would probably be "She was bright but she didn't apply herself."

My ideal would be "She walked in the stardust and her contributions to the human race will never be forgotten."

"Gun Permit Number: (Real Number Here)"
"Passport Number: (Real Number Here)"
"Mother's Maiden Name: (Real Name Here)"
"Father's Name: (Real Name Here)"
"Last lived at: (Real Address Here)"
"Also Known As: (All Aliases here, listed in alphabetical order with dates and purposes used)"

"That Which I Have So Jealously Guarded In Life, I Now Give Freely In Death."

"So That I May Be Immortal Through Identity Theft."



Damn, that's gonna have to be small to fit it all on a tombstone.

Maybe a bigger tombstone...or written all over the inside of my crypt or something.

Unfortunately, that's MY idea of an ideal epitaph.  Unfortunately, mine's more likely to be: "Of all the ways we all thought he could go, even he didn't see this one coming."

"No, It Wasn't Ink Poisoning"

out of irony, because I probably will die of ink poisoning like they all say.

Or....

"Thank God she's gone."

I don't know which is worse.

BASTARD! And here I thought I would get in a good Royal Tenenbaums ref.

Hmm...

I think I would have the entire Incomplete List of Impolite Words engraved on my headstone. Or maybe, "I am now the frisbee."  :-D

I am determined to confuse anyone who tries to make sense of my epitaph.
